Streaming TV FULLSCREEN please!!!

Hi all. Has anyone tried streaming TV using WMP10 (& PocketstreamerPro) and managed to get it in FULLSCREEN? I'm really getting peeved off with a viewable image the size of a stamp!!
Videos are OK in TCPMP, but it doesn't support streaming TV.
Or does anyone know of any plug-ins for TCPMP which allow it to stream? really need some help here..... :?

The latest tcpmp beta (1.71b IIRC) support tv streaming and mms. You should give it a try. For other format, try PVplayer

Hi again. I'm struggling to find that version of tcpmp that you quoted. I can only find version 0.71. Is that the same? Probably not! Could you point me in the right direction of a download link please? Cheers.

I'm pertty sure 1.71 was a typo. Get the latest version here:
http://tcpmp.corecodec.org/about

Yes, sorry for this. The version 1 is planned soon, and we are still at zero versionning. BTW, PVplayer is only for operator coded TV or movies. TCPMP is suited for a lot of streaming channels, and can also guess the link of the stream if you provide it with the URL of the containing web page in the file open dialog.

You REALLY can stream Internet TV through TCPMP on wifi!!!

Hi again. I actually bought PocketstreamerPro, only to find it way too restrictive and quite useless (as WMP 10 only shows TV in a small window and I can't find a workaround for it).
I fiddled around with TCPMP to no end, and to no avail I might add. But then I checked back to find your response, which implies that you can definately stream through TCPMP using the 'File Open' menu. Well, as there was nothing to link to (I had no format for storing the URL), I couldn't do it.
So I found a website called TV4all.com and copied some of the URLs there and typed them into the URL bar in my browser, which opened up Windows media player on my desktop PC. There I saved it as a '.mru' playlist (also checked in associations in TCPMP in addition to HTTP and MMS) and copied that file onto my storage card. TCPMP could and did find this and presto! I'm now streaming in full screen to my betaplayer (it takes a while to actually start working though). I now have access to potentially hundreds of Internet TV channels! I will explore further, but is this the way you do it? or do you have a much simpler process? feedback is most welcome right about now!!
Thanks for your help thus far though.

thats because you're using mini while he's using a VGA device, the universal

The file open dialog is to input a mms:// adress, or the http:// of a webpage linking to your content. If you input the webpage, you will get after that the list of all available streams on this page.

Hi, I have a question...
I have this app called "Streaming Video" under Programs. I guess it was there ever since I had this. I havent used it though coz I dont know how. I wanted to try video streaming but I dont know which RTSP url to put.. WOuld you know anything about this? Thanks..
.... additional: i tried opening azn.tv and saigontivi thru the video streaming app and its not working..

Anyone got any good pages that just offer direct links to the feeds ? Nearly every site I find you have to go through multiple pages and some of them wont even show properly.

live streaming is not supported

I have a mda vario/wizard on t-mobile uk network... when i tried streaming using the streaming video program i think its windows media player, but it says "live streaming is not supported" when i try to connect it goes to "rtsp://" what do i have to put in? i don't know!

This might shed some light, but I haven't tried to live stream anything so I don't know first-hand.
Media guide
You can open a browser page that allows you to access a media guide
with links to streaming media sites and files.
To stream from the Internet:
1 Configure your RealOne Player default access point (see “Default Access Point setting”).
2 From the main Menu, open Services (XHTML browser).
3 In the Bookmarks view, open the Mobile Media Guide bookmark.
Note: In the RealOne Player, you can only open an rstp://url
address. You cannot open an http://url address.
4 Find a link to a streaming site that interests you, and select the link.

I Finally Found Out How to Get YouTube To Work![new]

On your wizard, go to this address: http://m.youtube.com
The videos load perfectly and work 100% using Internet Explorer (the videos automatically open in the streaming video player thing). I think YouTube just set up this site today(to test for the upcoming iPhone), but it works perfect on our wizards as well! Try it!

Nice, got there but when I try to play a video I get an unspecified error on Windows Media. Does this work with WM5 or I must install something?

I'm not sure about WM5, never tested it (i'm using WM6 XDA-MOBILE 6). When I click on a video, it opens in the streaming video player that was bundled with XM6.
Anyone else have luck? I got mine to work ^_^

Only works from certain cell providers!
Seems as though YouTube's only sharing the love with certain cell providers... I was able to successfully test the site using Cingular. The site didn't work using my 8125, Wifi & my local cable ISP!!!

Site loads Video does not on T-Mobile USA.

I just tried it on Faria's WM5 with wifi!! Works great!!

I can't get it to work. I've tried opening m.youtube.com and clicking on video opens media player 10. These are 3gp files (?). It just says "Unspecified error".
WM5 / MDA vario.

Even i got the same error with WM5.. anything else need to be downloaded..

Maybe we WM2005 users should install a codec or something? What does Faria's WM2005 ROM have? I'm on a spanish WM2005.

Post your provider and connection method.
Because Youtube and fodavone officially announced their service in NL so it might have to to with ip ranges or provider networks for it to work.
I checked it over T-Mobile NL and it worked BTW.
It indeed opened up in the streaming player that i found useless at first.
Running Faria Crossbow Real Thing ROM.

Faria's WM5 3.3 has streaming video installed. All I do is navigate to m.youtube with PIE and select a video, it automatically pops up streaming video and it plays.
I'm on Cingular/ATT and it works with WIFi and GPRS.

It has absolutely nothing to do with your provider. I tested on my cingular 8125 running XM6, on both T-mobile and on cingular and it works fine (although I recommend using it through wi-fi, as the videos can take a while to load if you're stuck with a slow gprs connect).

I have the player installed, but only get audio distorted) no video. Is there a URL I can put into the RTSP box to get both audio and video?
8125

So, unless someone can tell us what fario's WM5 has in it... I'm personally stuck using this method that I just stumbled upon this morning. I guess the only ugly part is that I have to copy the ID part out of the URL, and past it into the little 'youtubedownload' program. Then, explore over to the downloaded file to play it in TCPMP.
I wish, I wish, It would pop up from my browser after clicking it from there, like fario's code does. (what programs does it use?)
The 3 files in the link below are the 2 plugins, that need to go into the plugin directory of TCPMP, and then the .exe that is the download util. .Yea, Ugly.

Listen to http streams

The following URL opened in Windows XP (Mediaplayer) plays a stream of a popular Dutch radio station:
http://talpa-asx.streaming.is.nl/streaming.asp?P=40003&Q=HQ
Unfortunately, this doesn't work with the streamplayer that comes with the P3600. Are there any other mediaplayers that would play this stream?
CD

have you tried coreplayer?

No, I haven't - I will look into it.

Oh, this is payware, right? No problem, but I would like to try it to be sure it works with the streams I want to use.
Anyone knows of a try-before-you-buy version?

http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=1080
TCPMP is the free version though i dont know if the core version
have better steaming funcs

I downloaded this software, but can't find out to get it playing streaming radio (see link first post).
Anyone?

Do you know a .FLV PLAYER which work???

Where can I find a .flv player??
I need to watch my .flv movies which are already stored on my device (so I'm not talking about see youtube's videos)..
I have already tried TCPMP and its plugin.. But it doesn't work.. It isn't able to open my .flv files (and I have installed the plugin)...
Anyway.. Any solution?
It could go well also something which allow me to play .flv videos directly from PIE or NetFront...
I already know that youtube allows you to see its videos throught TCPMP, but I need to see also other videos, not onle youtube's ones...
Thank you!

tcpmp works for me

yeah, flavio, I think you're doing something wrong. I watch .flv files all the time with tcpmp.
Nothing fancy to make it work, I just install the flash media bundle with tcpmp (the part that makes it work for online youtube videos), and then within tcpmp, click file->open and browse to the .flv on my storage card.
Can't get much more simple... what's not working?

Have you made sure that Flash Video is checked in File Associations?
When prog open select Options/Settings and then select page File Associations and scroll down near the bottom to check Flash Video box, and any others you might wish to enable.
It's one thing installing the plug-in but it still needs enabling!

Only asked if u were running 0.81 cose the bundle is made for 0.72 (but can still work with 0.81) so installs in '(Storage Card\)Program Files\TCPMP' while 0.81 installs in 'Program Files\ TCPMP (something)\Player' with the 0.81 try moving the files from 'program files\tcpmp' to the file for the 0.81 version then try again.
